I just asked something similar the other day.
I would assume that at a low level Aspell has to lookup words, so that
API is accessing that feature.
Is it a performance problem? Well, some code has to split the text, so
the question is what is faster: your code or Aspell's code. Might be
worth doing some benchmarking of your code to split the text vs. using a
pipe to the aspell binary.
My question the other day was if there was an API to the code that
splits the text (so you could pass in a string of words).
